They're just living in our heads
He came back to me last night. Like always, he was there for me when I needed him, when I felt down and out. I can still recall hugging and snuggling into his soft coat, his lovable face next to mine. I can still recall his scent.
As Coldplay sings - those who are dead are not dead, they're just living in our heads.

Once is never enough
You say it's for her sake, but that's not it. I know you miss him and I do too, which is why I don't want another. In part, I feel like his leaving was caused by negligence, one that probably wouldn't have occurred if we've just had one. One to pay constant attention to. One to take care of.
I am so sick of having to deal with so many things in my life, one of which is getting stuck in a dead end for the next couple of years, one that I am just realising and feeling like f about it. But I've got no one to turn to. No one to hear me. Not even you.
I'm sick of worrying about so many things, and I don't need one more to worry about. It's a lifetime commitment, one that I don't want now, when I myself don't know what I should do with my own f life. So please, stop it.

Waiting for a new lease of life
It sucks you in and consumes you. All for the thing that makes the world go round. If only it were as simple as how the Powerpuff girls say - it's Love that makes the world go round.
It's only been 2 weeks and I'm hearing the fat lady sing.

Much needed break
Not up to my normal teaching game recently, which sucks cos of all the observations that have passed and are coming.
Fun over work for me now - still suffering from withdrawl symptom from holidays. Need at least another month to recuperate but I guess a weekend getaway was good too.
Dashed off to Batam on Friday for a super last minute and short trip away from all the work and stress. But before that, was extremely stressed out by someone's incessant talking. So much so that I had to dash out of the room once he showed some semblance of ending, packed my stuff hurriedly and dashed straight into the car that would bring me to a day of heaven.
Managed to make it just in time for the ferry. Imagine us running through the mall, with me carry a huge backpack. A scene that would have totally made it on Amazing Race Asia.
Anyways, the hotel was superb! Huge deluxe room with a toilet that I absolutely love cos it's so huge. Pacific Palace Hotel, I believe.
Just after heading up to the rooms to freshen up, we had to leave for dinner already. Seafood in a kelong - tons of fresh seafood with the likes of chilli mud crabs, steamed flower crabs, gong gong, scallops, deep fried prawns, steamed prawns and steamed fish. Whilst we feasted, so did the mosquitoes and the cats, both thanks to me.
Right after, we headed back to town and got us some delicious BBQ corn on the cob. Smothered with chilli and butter, it was a superb snack. Kinda like Calbee chips without the trans fat. Got us some rambutans at the streetstall too.
And after that, headed off to town for more food - roti prata and chicken wings, and calamari as well as otah.
Then, headed for fried catfish. No idea catfish tasted so nice. Also had a taste of their ayam soto. Ended off the night feasting with Martabak - kinda like the pancakes that they sell in Mr Bean, but think 100 times nicer.
Yes, basically it was a ploy to get us all fat.
The next day started with what else, but more food. Had empeh empeh which was superb - fish ball, fish skin and some other fish thingy with egg in it. Also had the best yellow rice with chicken that I've ever tasted. Think super tender and juicy chicken meat. Plus, goreng pisang that's flattened. Yes, their goreng pisang's flat, not cylindrical.
A break from eating as we went shopping for what else but food. Well, and other groceries as well. Bought tons of things, including a box of Sedap Mie Mee Goreng. Tried some when we went on our trip to Hantu and am glad when we finally located an entire box of it.
After all that shopping, headed to A&W for the much craved for curly fries and root beer float. Yummy... great end cos we headed for the ferry after that.
Returned to have to rush to prepare to head over to Brendan's place for his party. Play Guitar Hero World Tour - tried the bass and drums. Fun but a little too testing on my coordination skills.
Food yet again and then headed to watch Dan almost play ball. Almost because it poured the moment they started playing. Yes, it was a sign. A sign that we had to eat again.
And after food, it was drinks and songs. Yay to Chevron. And that was my fun-filled Fri-Sat which resulted in my not-so-fun-filled Sun cos I had to stay in to work on my lesson plans. Damn. At least I'll have more food to look forward to when I head over to my friend's party. Yay. Fatten me up.
